What is channeling? How can channels help you?How can you integrate the information they give you into your lives, in both a practical and a spiritual way?How can you learn to be intuitive, perhaps even to channel?

In reading this book and searching for the answers to these questions, you are embarking on an exciting exploration into the world of intuition or "direct knowing." You will find that channeling is a not-so-mysterious way of tapping intuition, a natural faculty with which you were born.

Exploring channeling and the intuitive process is for the individual a journey of self-transformation. As you commit yourself to pursuing the intuitive path,over the days and years to come, you will find yourself gradually changing. You will no longer limit yourself to one particular method of rational, logical or empirical thought, but will eventually reach deeper into the richest source of information that you can possessyourself.

But along your journey you will probably need some assistance. I certainly did during my own search for truth. That search began when I was an adolescent and became interested in such things as ESP, telepathy, and the afterlife. After several years of intense study and practice, my search culminated when I was about twenty-two years old and developed the channeling state. But it didn't end there.

About eight years ago, I met Dr. William Kautz,who was then working as a scientist at SRI International (formerly Stanford Research Institute) and independently conducting psychic research. He impressed me as a person who was both highly disciplined in science and highly sensitive to his own intuition.

One of the most knowledgeable entities, who speaks through me in the name of John, once said,"Science is the scribe that documents what God already knows."

Dr. Kautz took channeling and brought it into an entire new realm by showing how intuition can be a rich source of verifiable scientific information. He fulfilled a vision I always had of working in the context of futurismharnessing intuition and logic to see what forces are shaping our society and how the future maybe out. He also became a mentor to me.

Dr. Kautz showed me how patient, diligent work with intuition can lead to the discovery and expression of one's deepest inner resources. He helped me harness and strengthen my own intuitive faculties. He respected me as a person with a unique talent, not outside the realm of possibility, that could benefit other individuals as well as society as a whole.

Now Dr. Kautz is once again sharing his extensiv knowledge about channeling and the intuitive process,this time with you.

Everyone who embarks on an exploration into anew area should do so from a well-informed position. In this book, Dr. Kautz and his co-author, Melanie Branon, give you a clear understanding of the channeling process so you can make intelligent decisions and exercise discernment while you explore. They show you how channels (such as myself) can intuitively guide individuals (such as you) along your personal journey to self-discovery.

While you are developing your own intuition,skilled channels can be a wonderful source of information and inspiration for you. Throughout this book,different channels (including yours truly) explain how they developed their intuitive skills and share the methods they use in working with people. Specific case historiesincluding excerpts from actual readings along with clients' commentsshow you how channels have helped people solve problems, gain deeper insight into themselves, and improve their personal circumstances.

There is a classic metaphysical principle that matter follows thought. As you apply the insights about channeling and intuition that you gain from this book, your way of thinking, your perception of reality, will begin to change. As you progress along your own intuitive path, your individual growth will have an impact on others, first in your personal relationships and then in group dynamics. And as more and more people follow in your footsteps, that impact will multiply and branch outuntil you all collectively participate in shifting the paradigm, or world view, this society currently holds. Then you will indeed become the "New Age"of consciousness that awaits you now.

I wish you the best of fortune in your intuitive exploration.

Through channeling, we have both discovered deeper dimensions to our own lives, as well as exciting possibilities for broader applications of this intuitive process. Through this book, we hope to share that enriching and inspiring experience with all of you.

The names and identifying details of the persons mentioned in chapters 4 and 5 have been changed. The channeled information included is excerpted from actual readings.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

ALBERT EINSTEIN

Richard Lavin closes his eyes and fidgets in the hard aluminum chair, searching for a comfortable position. Bowing his head slightly, he breathes deeply. Suddenly, his shoulders heave up and his entire body shudders as though chilled by a gust of cold air. Then slowly, his shoulders settle down and he relaxes.

"Give us a moment, please," he murmurs and breathes again. His head rises, face calm and eyes still closed. "We are ready now," he proclaims.

Over the next two hours, a spiritual "entity"someone or something named Ectonwill speak through Lavin's body in a mysterious process called"channeling."

What is this thing called "channeling?" The latest Hollywood breakthrough in special effects? A magician's triumphant slight of hand and eye?

Neither. Channeling is an age-old intuitive practice rapidly gaining popularity in modern Western society. Webster defines intuition as "comprehension without effort of reasoning" and channeling as "a means of access; a route." Put the definitions together,and channeling simply describes "a means of access to intuition."

Channeling is an inner process, an intuitive connection with a universal but unseen source of information and insight.

We hope this book will take the mystery out of channeling for you. The following chapters explain what channeling is and how it works. They describe how to distinguish good channels from bad, how to evaluate channeled information, and how to develop your own intuitive skills. Most importantly, they show you how channeling can put you on a personal path to self-discovery and fulfillment.
